Come for the winter. It can be beautiful on the James, and I am offering a personal full weather related refund (less Airbnb fees) from Jan 1st thru March 15th. The boat is warm and has a very private bedroom and a modern and private bathroom. Her galley is just right for cookin' "grits" ham and eggs, or creating a more romantic dinner. The marina and the GiaMaria are unique to the area with Richmond only 7 country road miles away. So come, even one night will create wonderful lifetime memories.

The 50' Chris Craft, GiaMaria, is a hybrid idea turned reality that came into my mind as I was exploring a way to provide an adventure for guests at a reasonable price, even for those who would be staying aboard only for one night. And so, I built the boat so that looking at the stars and hearing a Hoot Owl from the upper deck, would in my opinion beat hands down watching another dumbed down TV program. Also, my plan was for the GiaMaria to offer a total living space, where you can cook a full gourmet meal and dance in the main saloon. She is not just a room where you don't know who is in the next room to you, but a safe and quiet place where you can relax, stay warm or cool depending on the seasons and still get away from that "beaten path." For all practicable purposes, you will be experiencing living in a "tiny house" while living aboard a very nice boat, but it won't feel like it because the Giamaria is really quite roomy. So, if you have ever wondered what living in less space, or what living in a houseboat would be like, then this is for you. Because you get not only a great place to enjoy your stay, but you get to experience both life styles. This vessel is a great addition to the greater Richmond area too because of her unique location, and also her close proximity to the cities of Richmond, Petersburg, Hopewell and Colonial heights.
And something else that is unique has to do with me, your host. And that is, I am the longest surviving USCG licensed James River tugboat captain, and in my retirement years in addition to building and offering the Giamaria, I became an amateur historian, writer, and a lover of the hundreds of species of wildlife in our area. Even where the GiaMaria is berthed it is unique, because she is moored alongside a private dock, and in a remote oxbow of the James River where commercial vessels don't rock and roll us, or scare our game, or destroy our beautiful shorelines. In truth, we are remote without being remote because we are only seven miles from the Capital of Virginia. Yet the only approach to the Richmond Yacht Basin other than by water (or helicopter) is through the beautiful, scenic, and well kept Richmond National Battlefield Park.
It is an area where many species of wildlife live and can appear at any time or place along the roadway, so please be careful when driving. The road which is about a mile long has a speed limit of 25 MPH and follows earthworks that were hand dug by Union soldiers during the Civil War .
At the end of the road and straight ahead, a walking path will lead you to Fort Brady (named for Matthew Brady the celebrated Civil War Photographer) which overlooks the James River. It is a magical spot well worth every minute you will spend there.
And only a few yards away and to your right is a coded gate that secures a couple of beautiful farms and the marina entrance.
As you descend the hill, the sign reads 41/2 miles per hour. It is not just to control speed, but because we want you to take a moment and enjoy the beautiful view and the historic space that you are entering as you approach the marina.
The GiaMaria is a 50' long Houseboat, and what has surprised every single guest that has stayed aboard, is how roomy and comfortable she is.
As her owner and someone who has spent a lifetime on boats, I very well know how charming but uncomfortable some boats can be no matter their size. And so, my number one goal as I set out to redesign and rebuild this vessel was to make it as comfortable as your home, and also highly functional. And if what my guests have had to say about it is true, then I did accomplish this goal. And not only did I want to build in easy living, but my plan also included locating the GiaMaria in a safe, seclude and picturesque marina.
I therefore chose Richmond Yacht Basin to be her new home. It is a place where my guests would have an opportunity to cruise, fish, play or stay aboard in one of the most beautiful settings to be found in Eastern Virginia. It is not the kind of marina where all boats are necessarily stacked one beside the other, or where deck shoes are required, but a place with lots of local color because of the people who inhabit the marina, the working boatyard and the wilderness just across the river.
Richmond Yacht Basin, a place that I have come to cherish, is a small, quiet and cozy family owned jewel, and it is only 15 minutes or less from downtown Richmond by way of (Osborne Turnpike) an old country road. The road itself is also unique because as you reach a point on a hill just before entering Richmond you will experience a beautiful view of the downtown, yet you will still be traveling past a well kept farm.
But back at the marina and within walking/jogging/cycling distance there is the Richmond National Battlefield Park, a magnificent Henrico County owned park at Osborne Landing with a Bass Master's Classic landing for launching boats and a separate kayak/canoe launch dock and a wonderful playg...

Whether you just want to stay aboard and enjoy the boat, or experience all the area has to offer, we can help you find your way. There are wonderful upscale restaurants with great views of both the river and the city in Churchill Hill, Shockoe Slip,("the bottom") or Rocketts Landing. Restaurants such as Millie's, The Tobacco Company, Conch Republic or The Boat House are all only minutes from the GiaMaria.
But we also have ( kinda/sorta) in our backyard, the "Lilly Pad". Actually it is next door to Osborne landing. It is a great little spot along the shore where you can have a relaxed evening with locals over a beer or a delicious meal, and sometimes they have live music, but it is like that proverbial box of chocolates, "you never know what you're gonna get".
Richmond also has great museums, sporting events, Class III and class IV whitewater rafting that will carry you right through the city. There are also numerous theaters, places of worship, colleges and universities. County and National parks are all around us, and only a short drive up or down the road is Petersburg, Charlottesville, Williamsburg, Jamestown, or Yorktown as well as Bush Gardens, Kings Dominion and outlet malls. In fact, there is so much to see and do here in our area, that it would require a team to put it all together in tour guide format. There is truly something here for everyone, and we can help you find it.
Driving? You will park in a free secured lighted area with lighted docks during your entire stay. Richmond has two train stations and an airport which is only fifteen minutes away.
We are four miles from route five (a Virgina Scenic by-Way), five and a half miles from I-295 and five miles from I-95. Richmond in my opinion is the easiest city on the east coast to get around in. We have multiple freeways going in all directions and even through the middle of the city.
And monument Avenue in the center of Richmond is the only avenue in the United States that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2007, Monument Avenue was named one of the 10 Great Streets in the country, by the American Planning Association.
Note: It is worth reading on Wikipedia about this great street and the events that occur there each year. And ladies, bring your most outlandish bonnet if you plan to be here during Easter.
Want an "in place" to do some chic shopping, then don't miss Carytown on Cary Street. It is just a few blocks south of and parallel to Monument Ave.
I am a native Virginian who has spent most of my life living and working on or along the James River and at a very young age, I developed a love of our area, our people, and our history, and I will be glad to share what I know with my guests.
Captain Ron

Complete rest and relaxation wrapped up in true Southern Hospitality! Ron is a great host who is friendly and very considerate of his guests. The houseboat is an excellent floating home complete with a very comfortable bed, large shower with hot water, a cute completely furnished galley, and a cozy livingroom. Ron gave us a tour and explained how everything worked. He even provides steps from the boat to the dock that come in handy at low tide. His photographs are beautiful and give a very accurate picture of the area. Very serene, full of nature, and views of boats on the river. Relax on the deck and let your problems float away. If you don't feel like cooking, stroll over to the Lilly Pad for some good food, drinks, and conversation. Thank you Ron and Ruth. We will be back!

BobAugust 2015

This was my first time using Airbnb, and it was the exact unique yet homey experience I was hoping for. My boyfriend and I were making a very quick trip to Richmond arriving in the evening and leaving in the early afternoon, but we didn't want to stay in a hotel room downtown. Ronald was extremely flexible and accommodating, and though we couldn't chat for long, I could tell he's full of stories and wisdom, and has lived quite the adventurous life. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the peace and quiet on his beauty of a houseboat!

ChristineFebruary 2016

One of the most relaxing and heartwarming getaways we have ever taken. Ron and Ruth truly become like family when you meet them. The history they can reward with and tell you about as well as give your their personal input on fishing and stores to hit in town. We will most definitely return as well as have them come visit us at our home. We even ended up staying an extra night. It was too nice to leave.

JeanneAugust 2015

Ron was accommodating and very interesting and pleasant. The boat was spotless and had everything that I needed and more.

KarenOctober 2016

Loved the place, can't wait to come back. No frills, but amazing scene. Can't beat being on the water.

StevenOctober 2016

The experience of waking up to an amazing sunrise on the river was priceless. Do not hesitate to book this boat!

TreyNovember 2016

Ronald was a fabulous host! His boat is one of the coziest places I've ever visited. It is perfect for relaxing and to have long walks in the green. But you are fast in the city by car,too. App. 15 minutes to Cary St. One of the placed to see in Richmond, with cute little shops, cafes and restaurants . Thanks for the great hint Captain Ron! I recommend Captain Ron and his houseboat to everyone who is looking for a special journey with the most exciting and coolest host ever. Thank you!

DanielMay 2016

Review for Ronald A magical three days on the river in Ron and Ruth’s delightful houseboat is the perfect get-a-way – reviving body and soul. The boat is comfortable and the setting is quiet. We spent our time between the top deck, watching the river go by and reading in the comfortable quarters below that became our home away from home. The river flows through wilderness, large trees line the banks on both sides and an occasional sturgeon leaps out of the water to the amazement the one who is lucky enough to see it. Ron and Ruth are hospitable – helping when called upon and eager to share the river they love with guests. We were treated to an excursion on the James with Captain Ron at the wheel and assisted by 1st mate, Ruth; his knowledge of the area is immense. The James River tells a rich story – Ron describes it as the place where American began. Do yourself a favor and book a stay in paradise. Mary and John September 1, 2015

Second time staying here (extended stay) and Cindy kept the bar raised high on comfort and hospitality! This place is a MUST place to stay if passing through the area...you will be completely welcomed and feel like your at home.

JerryAugust 2016

Cindy's place was excellent! I think the design and the setting of her guest room should be rated more than 5 Stars :-) Even I didn't have a chance to meet with Cindy, she was very helpful for everything as well as her husband. Thanks for hosting and making sure your guest happy!

DaisyJuly 2016

I had a great experience as a first time Airbnb user. Cindy was very nice and the room was what it was advertised to be. I have already booked with her again.

TroySeptember 2016

Ms Cindy was so warm and welcoming. She communicated with us immediately. Everything was just as listed and more. The aroma in our living area was so relaxing. My husband insisted we find out what type of bed we slept on because he absolutely loved his nights sleep on the bed in our room. Comfort is the true word to explain our 5 star rated stay. To complete our stay Ms Cindy spoiled us with an amazing continental breakfast. Thanks Ms Cindy, we felt like we never left home.

DollieDecember 2015

First time Airbnb stay and all I can say is that Cindy has set the bar high for future stays on the Airbnb network. My stay and room was perfect; including a TV, fridge with water, juice and fresh fruit for the morning to go with the fresh baked muffins in my room. I had one of the comfortable stays in a long time......this place is a definite place to stay in the area. The experience was so awesome in fact that I booked another stay after business travel at the end of this week.

JerryAugust 2016

Cindy and her husband Evan provided us with everything we needed for a very comfortable 1-night stay. The neighborhood is quiet and also adjacent to major roads, right along our travel route. Delicious baked goods and fruit, a hot shower, and great hospitality!

Nice room in a quiet neighborhood. Kim was very accommodating and a super host.

JohnJuly 2016

Kim was extremely friendly as was everyone in the house. the air conditioner in the room let me choose the exact temperature i wanted which was great! the room was very spacious and very nice. it was a great experience.

Rebecca September 2016

Despite some last minute craziness on my part, Kim was very helpful and accomodating. The room was well laid out, bathroom easily accessible, and temperature was comfortable for me. I only ended up staying one night, but would have felt welcome for many more.

LeeSeptember 2016

Kim communicated with me prior to make certain she was available for my arrival. She showed me around the house, (which is lovely and comfortable), helped me bring in my bags and made sure I was settled. She is friendly without being intrusive. The neighborhood is quiet and very convenient to I-95/I-295. Much better than a hotel/motel.

LindaAugust 2016

By far hands down the best host ever good old Christian American Values and a great living space along with great company and some of the best cooking. Love this place.

HectorSeptember 2016

Immediately after confirming reservations with Kim I received a welcome notification from her. She was professional, polite, and welcoming. Upon my arrival I noticed that her house is located in a rural area - very quite indeed. The facade of the surrounding houses in the neighborhood were well maintained, to include Kim's as well. The house is located far enough into the neighborhood that the sounds of traffic were faint. The backyard was an impressive size - very spacious, there was a small pool and a deck the length of the house with the necessary deck accommodations. The house is located 30-minutes South of downtown Richmond - you must try The Black Sheep restaurant! Once I met Kim she was so gracious! Indeed the epitome of a "Southern Belle." She has a slight twang in her voice that puts you at ease. She gave me a tour of the house which was immaculate and eclectic and also provided me a key. The room that she had me stay in was located on the second floor and was conveniently adjacent to a full bathroom. The bedroom was clean, open, and spacious. In the bedroom was a tv, desk with a chair, and also a decorative chair. A nightstand was positioned next to the full-sized bed! The wifi signal worked exceptionally well. Kim was overwhelmingly accommodating; the day I arrived, she fed me with spaghetti and meatballs and 7-layer dip and chips. She strongly suggested me to make myself at home and provided me with places to visit in the surrounding area. If you're looking for a Southern laid-back home to retreat to this is the place for you.

Karin and her husband went above and beyond with acommidations. Even with some of my particular requests, I was blown away by their hospitality. First, the space is amazing if you're looking to be near the city but not in it. The view of the James is decorated with stunning plants and wildlife. They have a sweet, very well behaved dog. Really is everything and then some if you're looking for privacy or to have lots of interaction-- they are more than willing.

augustAugust 2016

We loved everything about staying with Karin!!! The long drive to a beautiful, secluded home, the charming view from our bedroom deck, the amazingly comfortable bed, the handy mini fridge, the refreshing pool, and yummy breakfast were just a few things that we thoroughly enjoyed! The hospitality was impeccable and will remain a highlight of our trip to Virginia!

lauren September 2016

What a great airbnb experience! We had a great stay at Karin's home. The only thing nicer than the view of the James River from the dining table was Karin herself. She was super accommodating; cooking breakfast for us and offering to help with whatever we needed. She really goes above and beyond as a host. Not to mention, the house is pretty amazing too!

ChristianNovember 2016

Beautiful home. Great location. Plenty of room. Plenty of privacy. Great host.

KimberlyJuly 2016

Karin was available to welcome us as soon as we arrived. Very friendly! We had a cracked windshield mishap on our travels and I made plans to have it replaced early the next morning locally before heading back on the road. I mentioned this to she and her husband when we arrived. After showing us to our room Karin called to me. She was on the phone with a local windshield repair shop and wanted to know the make of my car! Talk about hospitality!! The cost was less than 1/2 what I was ready to pay the next morning. She saved us a lot of money and we are very grateful for this extra, unexpected, generous help. We got in there the next morning at 10 and were back on the road by 11:30. My 13 yr old son and I enjoyed their beautiful, scenic pool. Swimming in the evening while looking out at the James River as the sun is beginning to set was so special. The flowers and landscaping were fabulous! Our bed was also very comfortable.

GeorgeanneAugust 2016

It was one of the best experiences! The place is magical with a great view! Karin and her husband were very welcoming to us! We had great time at the pool and we enjoyed the view on the james river that was so quite and relaxing! Music was played while we were on the pool, she provided us with cold water, watermelon/strawberry sorbet (was delicious), the next day we had vege pizza Which was great too! We were the first guests to their house and it was spectacular! The room and bathroom were very clean and she provided towels, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. Great breakfast with wonderful coffee too! Definitely recommend the stay with them! The house is big and so quite and you'll feel privacy too!

Karen and Willy were great hosts. The bathroom and room were clean. They were very friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this home.

Ale & Stey made me feel like a friend coming to visit. Very warm and welcoming. This was my first Airbnb and it definitely won't be the last. I hope all my future homes are as comforting and welcoming as this one. The room was private and very clean. All essential amenities were provided. Thank you Ale and Stey!

Kent C.August 2016

I couldn't be happier with my overnight stay at Ale and Stey's. I had a last minute situation and requested the booking less than 24 hours. They got back to me right away with a confirmation and their home couldn't be lovelier. I wish I could have stayed longer and gotten to know them they were very kind and welcoming and the room was great and the bed was amazingly comfortable!!! Thanks so much for everything!

MichelleOctober 2016

Ale and Stey were very warm and welcoming. The room was quite and clean and the bed was amazing. It was a great experience!

LarrySeptember 2016

I was most fortunate to be able to meet both hosts during my brief overnight stay in the room at their home. They are a great couple who seem to love hosting folks and it shows in every way. They greeted me, by name, with a warm and friendly welcome. which was so appreciated after my 8 hour drive in heavy traffic. They showed me around the house and to my room which was beautiful and comfortable and just as shown in the description pictures. The bed was extremely comfortable but, those sheets were a real gift, so very soft and comforting. The full, clean and nicely appointed bathroom for the room is right across from the room entrance and is dedicated to the guest. This is a very nice feature. Once I unpacked a bit in my room and put things in their fridge, I asked if I could watch a Sunday night football game and they both graciously accepted my request and set me up in their spacious living area. They joined me and we watched, fooled around with the internet trying to get the game on, talked, shared, laughed and got to know each other for a couple of hours. They were very open, real, honest and fun. Isn't just great when you can drop in from the ether into the house of folks you have never met and feel at home and like a friend? That's what they bring to the stay. Greatly appreciated! They are a special set of people and absolutely wonderful hosts. I highly recommend this home as a super place to stay. This will be my regular stop from this point forward. Great value and great people. I could'nt be happier about my choice to stay with them. The house, which is about 5 minutes off I-95 and is seemingly in a good neighborhood and appeared safe, is extremely well kept and clean. This is a beautiful classic early 1900's home loaded with charm. They have two new German Sheppard puppies who were very well behaved and just as cute as they could be. This was a special treat to meet them and get to know them too.

Bill October 2016

Great place to stay! Communication and description were perfect. The bed was so comfy; just like a home away from home!

We are sorry but we do not accept pets inside the house.

We do not provide meals or groceries - customers are responsible for all their meals and groceries. Guests are welcome to store food in the refrigerators and use the kitchen, kitchen utensils, pots and pans and anything else they may need to prepare their meals.

Gary and Noni were wonderful hosts. They were quick to respond when I had questions prior to arrival. Their home is lovely with a fantastic river view. Their home is very clean and comfortable. They provide house slippers, as they prefer that you do not wear your shoes in the house. They were so kind to make us coffee and toast the next morning, which was very much appreciated as there were not any places to grab breakfast before heading out for a bike ride. Wi-Fi is available and they have many brochures of things to do and see in the area. Noni is happy to make recommendations for places to eat. The bedrooms are like guest rooms in a friend's home rather than a hotel room (i.e., bed, dresser, closet, but no TV) and there are sitting areas inside and out that you are able to use so you don't have to sit on your bed in your room. They also have mini-fridges available in the area outside the bedrooms.

The description was spot on. We could not have had a more restful visit. Thank you Minney Family.

RaymondApril 2015

The one-night stay with Nani and Gary was probably the nicest experience since I book with airbnb. The house and the room I got were just wonderful and Nani and Gary are very warm, open and welcoming people. We had a lot of interesting talks and I enjoyed the stay very much and hope to be able to repeat the experience in a ****** accomodation.

ReinerOctober 2014

Gary and Nani were wonderful hosts! Their house is even better than it appears on the listing! They respected our privacy, and were warm and friendly. Nani offered my husband and I dinner the night we arrived (it was delicious!!) and made us homemade donuts the next morning! We will definitely stay with them whenever we are next in the area. The view from the back yard of the James River is breathtaking. Worth every penny and then some!

ZenaJuly 2014

Gary and his lovely wife made me feel like I was at home. Very friendly and helpful. Their property was magnificent, with a view to die for. Cozy, beautiful, peaceful and serine, it was the perfect location to relax and get ready for the next day. I not only plan to stay with them in the future, I will highly recommend their home to anyone.

KattFebruary 2015

A kind lady opened the door l, I didn't catch her name but I know it was Gary's wife. She lead me to my room, showed me where I could find things and let me be. Very polite! This morning made me breakfast! Thank you, mam.

SilviaSeptember 2016

We had a wonderful stay in Charles City thanks to Gary and Nani. Our hosts were extremely friendly people who provided us with a lot of useful advice for our trip. The house was very enjoyable with a great view on the lake. Our room was spacious and perfectly clean. We would highly recommend Gary and Nani's house for a stay in the region!

JuliaJune 2014

We had an amazing stay at Gary and Nani! The house is beautiful and the river view is breathtaking. They were so welcoming and we were treated to an amazing dinner the night we arrived.

This is one of the easiest reviews to write. Mayra's place was so beautiful. She was the nicest and most gracious host. She had snacks and her place is so wonderfully decorated. I enjoyed talking to her while my friends and I relaxed after two long days in Williamsburg. It was off the 95 and right on my way home. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip!

What a lovely, and way to short, first air bnb experience. Gary and Nani are so welcoming and perfect hosts. Thanks for letting my daughter play your lovely piano - sweet. Hope to make it back sometime!

LisaApril 2016

Gary met us on arrival and made certain that we felt welcome in his beautiful, riverside home. The location was perfect as we had come to that part of Virginia to ride the Virginia Capital Trail, an off-road bicycle trail from Jamestown to downtown Richmond. It was especially nice that we had full use of the kitchen so I could make our breakfasts and dinners during our stay.

AnnNovember 2016

An idyllic spot on the river, beautiful home, gracious hosts... I couldn't have asked for anything more! I wish I had more time to spend relaxing in such a wonderful spot. Peacefully placed on the river and easy access to lots of great cycling--what a perfect retreat from the DC insanity.

KathrynMay 2016

Gary and his wife were so hospitable. House is beautiful and clean! The view is impeccable! Wish we could have stayed longer!

DanielaJuly 2015

The hosts are very welcoming and attentive. They made me feel right at home.

KeithAugust 2016

Our hosts were fantastic people and more than generous with their time, accommodations and making sure we were comfortable during our 3 night stay. We received much more than just a room we received great companionship and hospitality. The home and grounds are beautiful and our room was large with a very comfortable bed and pillows. Everything we needed was available to us and even things we didn't know we needed. Our room also featured a Jack and Jill bathroom, small sofa, rocking chair and fan. There's also small refrigerator and microwave available in the hallway. We came to visit our son at Fort Lee which is a 20 minute drive away which is the same distance to a variety of shopping and dining establishments. My husband and I highly recommend this home and host. Thanks for the great experience Gary and Nani. Brenda, Steve and Cole

My place is close to nightlife (restaurants and bars), antique shops, health and beauty salons, bakeries, micro-breweries, public transport, and family-friendly arts activities all within walking distance. You’ll love my place because of the coziness, the high ceilings, the views, and the location. The Appomattox River is only a few blocks away as are other historical sites.

Enjoyed my stay at The Jury's Inn. Victoria's inn is located in the perfect spot if you want to stay in the Petersburg area. Parking was easy to find and many museums are within easy driving distance. Victoria made a few dining suggestions which I followed up on, and they turned out to be great choices. The room itself is very new, and I found it to be very, very clean. A nice renovation to an 1850s building.

This is a luxury loft in Historic Old Towne Petersburg. Fully furnished - just bring your clothes and make yourself at home! Linens, towels, plates, glassware, and cookware are all ready for you to use.

This is an urban-chic 1,800 Sq foot loft transformed from what used to be an optometrist's office. Some of the vintage equipment is still on site and you can enjoy a movie from your very own eye-exam chair! Nicely furnished, very urban. Located in Downtown Petersburg overlooking Main Street and easy walking distance to the Old Towne dining and entertainment area.
Walk to restaurants such as Wabi Sabi, Longstreet's, Alexanders, Maria's, The Brickhouse Pub, Croaker Spot, Andrade's, Blue Willow Tea Room, Dixie Diner, Demolition Coffee, Spike's Diner, Saucy's BBQ, and Buttermilk Bakeshop just to name a few. Numerous shops are on our "antique row" along with art galleries and museums. There are several day spas in town and one is your next-door neighbor! Enjoy "Friday for the Arts" every second Friday of the month just steps from your front door. Seasonal Ghost Tours are also right around the corner along with some on-going movie filming. Come see where "Lincoln" was filmed and why Meg Ryan & Tom Hank's "Ithaca" was shot here. Currently, the PBS production "Mercy Street" can be seen at different times as they continue their filming among the Civil War-era buildings and cobblestone streets.
Fully stocked kitchen
Over-sized shower with rainfall shower-head
Queen-sized bed in bedroom and pull-out sofa in living area.
60" big screen TV
Plenty of comfy chairs, and antique rugs throughout.
Full-size dining table seats 6 with extra space at island in kitchen.
Private, secure, on-site storage great for bicycles and more!
The entire apartment with private entry and storage is for guest's use.
We are around town quite a bit and you may even see us out and about enjoying what this amazing town has to offer. We are ready to answer any questions you may have or offer suggestions.

Petersburg is unique for its history. Revolutionary War and Civil War historians have us on their list of favorite places, and the authentic architecture has captured the eye of Hollywood as evidenced in the numerous productions filmed or being filmed in our town. No one is a stranger for long in Petersburg, as there are plenty of venues in town offering good food, good drinks, live music, and fun people. Once you stay, you'll agree that it's "Petersburg - a quaint little drinking town with a history problem."
The space is located within easy walking distance of the historic Old Towne area and only minutes driving to other attractions such as Blandford Church & Cemetery known for its Tiffany stained-glass windows, Petersburg National Battlefield Park, Pamplin Park, Appomattox River trails, kayak rentals, and more. Richmond is only 25 minutes to the north. Lake Chesdin is to the south.

Brent was there to meet us and showed us around the loft. He left great recommends for food and made sure we were set and comfortable before leaving. The loft was very clean and very well decorated. Definitely was a great home away from home. Everything was in walking distance for us.

AlisonNovember 2015

The loft is a very cool space, well decorated and has everything needed for a wonderful stay. Brent was a great communicator and made sure we had everything we needed. Petersburg is awesome!

Very interesting loft, it was much larger than we expected and incredibly comfortable. The hosts were very flexible with us when we needed to change or reservation and arrival time. They were welcoming and respectful and the loft had all the accommodations we needed.

ColeNovember 2015

My wife and I loved the very spacious loft, we were very comfortable and relaxed. Thank you for making our stay in Virginia memorable... The owner's were very welcoming and their hospitality was greatly appreciated..

ConoNovember 2015

Brent was a great host! He made the process very simple for us and was very responsive. The apartment has everything you could need. It has a unique style and was cozy and convenient also! We were visiting our son at Fort Lee which is less than 10 minutes away. There are some quaint restaurants to visit nearby which were walking distance. I would highly recommend Demolition Coffee! I will miss our home away from home! It was a great visit and we were very pleased with our stay in Brent's apartment.

AliciaNovember 2015

We were so excited to stay at the loft (just from seeing the pictures), and we certainly weren't disappointed! It is a fabulous place, and had everything we could possibly need -- perfect for a short stay or for a longer visit. The local eateries were great (try Demolition Coffee!), and there are several little shops just down the street -- plus, Richmond is only a few exits away. Brent was a great host, and we definitely hope to stay again in the future.

ShannonAugust 2016

Brent was a great host! I stayed in his place for an extended work trip, and it was perfect. Considering how long I stayed and how nothing went wrong (except the occasional light bulb burnout), I will definitely be back any time work puts me in the area. (The place even stayed warm with running water during an unexpected blizzard!) The decor is true to the pictures, the internet is fast and reliable, and the cable was a great distraction from work. Everything else is just as described in the overview of the apartment. The commute to neighboring towns and cities is convenient, and the access to all of the best restaurants in the area kept me thoroughly occupied when I wasn't at work.

Like most of our trips, this trip was quasi last minute and just happened to get in for this past Saturday night. We had thoroughly enjoyed historic Petersburg with the antique shopping and eating, and was ready for some relaxation! We found it at the Serviam! Between the wine to sip as we made a hard decision to eat out or get some yummy tapas there and relax, the great food served out on the deck, the ambiance they created with the fire and torches, to the awesome breakfast, we had a great time. Learning about the house and their life before Petersburg, made the stay that much better. Kimberly and her husband were great hosts, talking or not, just going with the flow of whatever we wanted. We will be back, probably with friends or family!

CassandraJune 2016

Everything was just as Kimberly described! We picked Petersburg as a perfect halfway point between home and Myrtle Beach to visit relatives for the holidays. We had a horrendous trip from NJ in the rain and, when we alerted Kimberly that we would be later than we expected, she offered to make us soup and bread so we could get out of the rain quicker and relax. We were determined to have dinner at a local restaurant, however, and when we arrived late, we found Kimberly and her husband waiting up for us. They were so hospitable, showed us all around the house, (a real bonus, as we love house tours!) and we shared a lovely bottle of wine and conversation before turning in, where we found truffles and a small glass of port on either side of the bed as a nightcap. I could not imagine a thing that was not provided in either the rooms or the bathroom - they truly thought of everything! Comfortable beds, a warm glow from the electric fireplace in our room, great shower and a nice peaceful night's sleep. We left before breakfast, unfortunately, but we are anxious to return to this place and try out Kimberly's cooking. If it's half as delicious as it looks, we'd be crazy not to. Thanks to both of you for a great start to our trip!

JackieDecember 2015

We absolutely LOVED our stay here. The owners were very accommodating and very sociable. We had a great evening having drinks and socializing about various topics, after a nice relaxing sit down in the hot tub on the back deck. The tapas were also fantastic, as well as the fresh made breakfast andThe bed in the room we stayed in was THE most comfortable bed i have ever slept in. We could not have asked for a better stay. We will be back!

KristiOctober 2016

This was a very nice experience - would go there again in a heart beat. Kimberly was very responsive early on and then such a good host once I arrived. The various rooms of the house as well as the patio and multiple decks were all very comfortable and peaceful. She had so many nice touches that made the overall experience very pleasant. She had cigars available, a sniff of brandy, wine, chocolates, water, soft drinks, and more. Her cooking is off the chart! The breakfast options... Wow. You are made to feel very special here. The old downtown area is very close and has some restaurants that are very good and unique. Loved this place.

PhilJune 2016

Review: First and foremost this place is a hidden gem in the city of Petersburg. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the Virginia or even PCSing to Ft. Lee. 1) Beautiful home: The house has a historical scenic theme. From the gorgeous paintings and sculptures to the furniture and China. Very classy feel. 2) Accommodating: I was able to contact Kimberly at almost anytime. She always responded and was willing to help in anyway possible. I was actually planning a wedding and Kim went as far to suggest ideas for us and even made the wedding cake. 3) Above and beyond service: We were able to take tours of the house prior to our check in date. For the wedding, a cake was made, candles were set, and music was even setup to add to our ceremony. For our stay, breakfast was immaculate. We had breakfast in our room and in the dining room. Both were great. We were given bath robes and slippers to roam around in and offered cognac, brandy, and cigars in the gentlemen's room. It even snowed on our last day there and the hot tub was set for us and made our last day a great experience. Overall best BnB experience I've had. Will definitely return for an anniversary or when ever I passing through.

AlexanderFebruary 2016

This place is a gem in Petersburg! I chose the location because I needed to visit Ft. Lee. I was completely taken aback with the service, food, art collection, and hospitality. I have stayed in places all over the world and the service and food here was exceptional. Kimberly and Randy thought of everything and their attention to detail was exceptional. I went there for business, but now have to find a reason to return for pleasure. Claw foot tub, in room massage available, turndown service (gelato and chocolate dipped strawberry with Port), and breakfast in bed (amazing eggs Benedict) would make for an amazing couple’s weekend. I didn’t even get to use the hot tub or see the evening garden- Next time! The location is not in downtown Petersburg; it’s a bit up and coming residential, you have to drive a couple miles to the shops, but I must say, once you are inside, it’s like you are traveling back in time with 5 star service and food. Don’t hesitate to book!

LuciaAugust 2016

OMG!! This place was amazing. We really didn't want to leave. The bed, the hot tub, the many rooms to explore all made a extraordinary weekend escape. I can't even get started on the food because there's not enough characters to allow it :) Just know that nothing you choose off the menu will be the wrong choice. Lastly, Kimberly and Randy were great. Ready to chat and give away recipes or stand back and let you have a romantic dinner on the deck. Were already looking for a reason to return to Petersburg!
